Mr. Luhrman, ( Romea + Juliet ), takes us through this poly-chromatic roller coaster for two hours and gives us more hue than we can chew.

Nicole Kidman is adorable as well as inadequate as the courtesan of the famous Paris nightclub 'Moulin Rouge'.

Biggest disappointment in this musical is the music. Famous pop sings and even a Hindi song are partially redone to a rather tame though sometimes funny effect.

Many times I wanted to believe that this was really a satire about pop culture but was never quite convinced.

Do watch this movie though as it is an important milestone and I am sure many more movies from now will refer to it for color kinetics.
